The group is composed of rappers T-Res and MC Taonga, along with producer Joro. Initially, the group also included three other members, Derman, MC Ess and Mare.

Tarkastus gained significant attention with their 1995 song "Poliisi Jenni", which has been recognized for its lyrical critique of the Finnish police and their handling of juvenile behavior. Their music explores social issues, such as access to healthcare, youth problems in cities, and critique of the societal system.
